Anthony Yeh - 8th Place

Former PokerNews employee Anthony Yeh didn't have much room to work at this final table. He moved in several times without being called. At some point, if Yeh hoped to win the tournament, he would need someone to call his all-in bet.

Action passed to Yeh and for the fourth or fifth time today he moved in. This time, Dan Casetta moved in behind him.

"Do you have a pair?" Yeh asked. Casetta did not. He had {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

, which was bad news for Yeh's {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

. It got even worse for Yeh on a flop of {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{K-Hearts}

{2-Spades}

. He needed runners to stay alive. The {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

on the turn left Yeh drawing dead. He left in 8th place to a round of applause from all of the PokerNews staff and former staff on hand to sweat him.
